Minature donkey help needed! -- Lori, 02:08:06 07/06/01 Fri(ACA7B910.ipt.aol.com/172.167.185.16)
I can't believe after months of searching, I finally found a donkey message board :)
I have a miniature donkey that I think might be pregnant and I'm looking for some good books. Something like the book, "Imprint Training Of The New Born Foal" by Robert M. Miller D.V.M. I know that donkeys are different in gestation than horses and want to also learn everything I can before she has this foal.
We have had several tests done on her. 2 blood tests that didn't work, the second one said negative but, questionable. We tried ultrasound on the outside of her belly but, that didn't work either. We can't have a rectal palpation done because she is so small.
Are there any good reliable pregnancy tests for "miniature" donkeys???
I'm pretty sure she is pregnant but, I want to be completely sure. I hate this waiting and wondering. I want to know the approx. date she's due. She was with the jack for so long in pasture and had no interest in him. I know they can be sneaky about the breeding thing. My friend has several donkeys and has NEVER seen them actually breed. They are really secret about the whole thing I guess.
Any info would be greatly appreciated!! I love this little girl and want to give her the best care I possibly can.

Mules -breeding info-big ugly heads? -- Sue, 20:03:18 01/08/03 Wed(on-ham-a53-02-102.look.ca/216.154.52.38)
I need some information please. I would like to breed one of my mares to a jack to get a saddle mule. They are very scarce here in Ontario, Canada. I assumed that a mammoth jack would throw 14 hand+ babies with a quarter horse mare 14.3 hands. I have been told that it is the size of the MARE that gives the height not the size of the jack. The fellow further told me that if I bred my mare with a mammoth jack all I would get is a 14 hand foal with a big ugly head.(Not quite what I had in mind) Is this true? We have 25 horses and approx. 12 mares. I have a 16 hand TB/Hanovarian Sport Horse that is open but she hates our standard donkey gelding that shares her 20 acre paddock; so I`m thinking that she would be less than impressed by being serviced by a longears! I can use my sons QH mare but she is just 14.2 hands and I would like a 15 hand mule. What do you think?
